| conner_bw | Hi, I just installed Xubuntu on my laptop. Is there a way to get right+click working for the battery icon in the top panel? Right now right click does nothing. Kind of inconsistent with the other icons up there. | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| Haggard | conner_bw: I'm using 12.04 on my laptop. Maybe you need to remove the notification item from the panel, restart, then re-add the notification. | 00:18 |
| xubuntu180 | hi yall | 03:49 |
| xubuntu180 | anyone there? | 03:49 |
| shuvarek | Yes, but I am going to sleep | 03:52 |
| xubuntu180 | wait can i ask you a question | 03:53 |
| xubuntu180 | or too late for that | 03:53 |
| xubuntu180 | just my luck | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | ask | 03:53 |
| shuvarek | go | 03:53 |
| xubuntu180 | how do you resolve hibernation and suspension problems | 03:53 |
| xubuntu180 | like shutting down when hibernating suspending | 03:53 |
| xubuntu180 | is there another way to suspend and hibernate | 03:54 |
| shuvarek | I am not the expert | 03:54 |
| shuvarek | I just restart computer if I have any problem with suspend | 03:54 |
| shuvarek | and do not even try hibernate | 03:55 |
| xubuntu180 | i am not picky ... i would like to hibernate OR suspend ... problem is, if I try either my computer shuts down | 03:55 |
| xubuntu180 | it is annoying to boot up every single time ... it would be convenientto be able to put the ocmptuer to sleep or hibernate | 03:56 |
| shuvarek | no, for me it is too late to think about it, sorry, g-night | 03:57 |

| hemangpatel | Hi | 04:23 |
| puff | Hi, previously with ubuntu I could logout/switch users, allowing somebody else to use my machine without requiring me to shut down all programs and exit. I'm running xubuntu now and I don't see that option. | 04:52 |
| cfhowlett | puff, not available via default configuration | 04:53 |
| puff | Drat. Thanks. | 04:54 |
| cfhowlett | puff, I think it's installable, but I don't know how. | 04:54 |
| samineru | Hi there, I believe during the guided installation of xubuntu, during the partition screen it will say that it has recognized an existing installlation and offers the ability to replace it. When doing this, it did not replace the existing installation as I expected, but wiped the whole disk including other partitions. Am I misremembering the prompt? | 07:16 |

| alphard | Hello all! Please forgive my being a n00b and all - I'm brand new to Linux (though very savvy with Windows), and am running into a weird issue when running (live USB, DVD, and after installing) Xubuntu on my HP Pavilion DV2700 laptop. The issue is this: there are weird lines (repeated horizontal lines of an opaque white to 100% transparency) on the screen, over everything else (all GUI). They do not appear when Xubuntu is loading and | 11:25 |
| alphard | nor during POST, nor while using Windows 7 Ultimate at any time (I have it set to dual-boot). Do I have to jerry-rig the nVidia driver to work with Xubuntu, or is there something else going on? | 11:25 |

| knome | mculp, try 'update-manager -c' | 18:03 |

| xubuntu546 | Hi every one | 20:25 |
| xubuntu546 | Does anyone knows if the media file preview is supported on Xubuntu 12.04? | 20:26 |
| xubuntu546 | in ubuntu 10.4 I put the curson over a song and it start playing | 20:26 |
| xubuntu546 | but I have not see that setting on xubuntu 12.04 | 20:27 |
| xubuntu424 | Hello | 20:46 |
| Unit193 | Howdy. | 20:46 |
| xubuntu424 | i don't print with Canon 6000 | 20:49 |
| Khep | hello | 21:40 |
| Unit193 | Wow. | 21:44 |
| xubuntu594 | Hi guys, I wonder if anyone would be able to help me with a 'read-only filesystem' error? I get this a couple minutes after every boot, every time I run fsck it fixes a bunch of errors but they reappear again upon starting xubuntu 12.04 LTS. memtest86+ and gnome-disk-utility gave me green flags for the RAM and HDD.. so I basically just want to know where I should start troubleshooting next | 21:52 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: i would run a test on the hard drive.. a long test, just to be sure | 21:55 |
| holstein | http://askubuntu.com/questions/105793/why-has-my-file-system-turned-read-only-after-updates has some suggestions for "read only" issues | 21:56 |
| xubuntu594 | holstein: thank you, what tool would you use to test the hard drive? smartmontools or similar? | 21:57 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: i use gsmartcontrol from a live CD | 21:58 |
| Unit193 | Is hdt any good? What HD brand? | 21:58 |
| shade | hello | 22:02 |
| xubuntu594 | holstein: right, I'll do that so. I did run gnome-disk-utilities' extended SMART self-test (took about 40 mins) and it was fine, though. | 22:02 |
| shade | i would like to know if xubuntu have localized installer and after instalation i would be able to use my country language | 22:02 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: sure.. and it could be any number of things happend that cuase your installation to be corrupted, or the filesystem to be corrupted or damaged | 22:03 |
| shade | i seen some moded verson of xubuntu and dunno if it would me any difrance to use those in place of orginal one | 22:03 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: an interrupted upgrade, a force poweroff.. who know.. anyway, it could be that everything is "fixed" now, the filesystem for example.. and the drive is fine, but the installation is bad for some reason | 22:04 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: i know for me, i have backups, so reinstallation is always an option | 22:04 |
| holstein | shade: the "modern" version os xubuntu is the recent supported version.. 13.10 | 22:04 |
| holstein | !13.10 | 22:04 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.10 - Read the release notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseNotes | 22:04 |
| shade | holstein: and hows with localization? | 22:04 |
| holstein | shade: the issue is, the quesiton will be, how is it with your *specific* location | 22:05 |
| shade | i need to make grandpa type instalation, user friendly, localized and usable for someone who does not see difrance in windows and linux | 22:05 |
| shade | holstein: polish | 22:05 |
| holstein | shade: AFAIK, there is support for many locale's and languages | 22:05 |
| holstein | shade: you should be able to select that at installation | 22:06 |
| shade | cool | 22:06 |
| Unit193 | shade: In the installer, I see language selections on the first screen. There was a guy that tried to get all the PL strings translated, I think that one is good but don't know for sure since I only know English. | 22:06 |
| shade | Unit193: yea, there is somekind of project with translation, i think you are talking about this http://czytelnia.ubuntu.pl/index.php/2012/10/31/xubuntu-mysi-remix-12-10pl/ | 22:08 |
| Unit193 | Nope. | 22:08 |
| shade | hmm | 22:08 |
| shade | Unit193: looks like there is no mod for 13.10 atm | 22:12 |
| holstein | shade: this is the *normal* instaler | 22:14 |
| holstein | shade: no "mod" necessary | 22:14 |
| holstein | shade: you download normal xubuntu, and select your language.. it'll load your language and try to communicate with you in that language as best it can, based on the translations that have been volunteered | 22:14 |
| xubuntu594 | holstein: yeah, thanks, I'm all backed up as well, hoping to avoid the reinstallation but it's looking increasingly likely! | 22:18 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: usually takes me about 8 minutes.. | 22:19 |
| Ethan[] | hi. I just upgraded to 13.10. the upgrade crashed partway through, and now xfce doesn't finish starting up. I can log in, but then am stuck on a screen with the desktop background image, the mouse, and nothing else. | 22:20 |
| Ethan[] | I can also ssh in | 22:20 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: i would want to make the upgrade complete.. | 22:21 |
| xubuntu594 | holstein: do you think you'd go straight for that option in this situation? | 22:21 |
| holstein | xubuntu594: if the hardware reports as not failing, and fsck didnt fix anything and there are no other clear error messages to share and troubleshoot, i know that 8 minutes from now, im staring at a clean install that works | 22:22 |
| Ethan[] | so, after the upgrade crashed, it woludn't boot with the message "filesystem check or mount failed". I followed the directions here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/361332/ubuntu-13-04-to-13-10-filesystem-check-or-mount-failed | 22:22 |
| Ethan[] | namely, dpkg --configure -a | 22:22 |
| Ethan[] | and that got me to where I am now | 22:22 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: thats a scenario where i would test the hard drive as well | 22:22 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: if the filesystem and/or hard drive wont mount, then you dont need to try messing with a package manager | 22:23 |
| Ethan[] | holstein: well, that fixed the message "filesystem check or mount failed". but now the issue is that xfce won't finish logging in | 22:24 |
| Ethan[] | the filesystems are all mounted fine now | 22:24 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: if you can ssh into a shell, or use the recovery kernel, you dont need xfce | 22:24 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: skip troubleshooting getting xfce to load, and go right to making the upgrade complete | 22:25 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: its generally bad to disrupt an upgrade.. its a process that, in my experience, at best takes 5 hours or so | 22:26 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: a fresh install will take, as i was saying above, about 8 minutes.. at some point, you might want to just backup your data, and fresh install the next version, 13.10 | 22:26 |
| xubuntu594 | holstein: thanks man | 22:31 |
| Ethan[] | okay, I've found some stuff that may help to finish the upgrade. I'd tried 'do-release-upgrade' but that just says "No new release found". currently trying some things with apt | 22:31 |
| Ethan[] | thanks | 22:32 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: i would want to look at my sources, and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 22:32 |
| Ethan[] | dist-upgrade also just told me there was no upgrade available, if I recall corretly. I'm currently upgrading packages, then will check dist-upgrade | 22:35 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: i would look at the sources.. see that they are 13.10 sources.. then get "sudo apt-get update" to complete with no errors.. then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".. | 22:47 |
| Ethan[] | sources are saucy, and I think that apt-get update did run successfully previously | 22:50 |
| Ethan[] | yeah, it did, found that | 22:50 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: run it and confirm | 22:51 |
| Ethan[] | yeah, I did. I still have package upgrades running, then will check update again and dist-upgrade. | 22:52 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: dist upgrade is the next command to use | 22:53 |
| holstein | Ethan[]: its not "upgrade my distro".. its allowing packages to upgrade across different sources, basically | 22:53 |
| Ethan[] | okay, cool | 22:54 |
| Ethan[] | so, dist-upgrade mostly ran okay but linux-headers-3.11.0-14 had this error: unable to install new version of `./usr/src/linux-headers-3.11.0-14/arch/sh/drivers': No space left on device | 23:20 |
| Ethan[] | which seems odd, as I have plenty of free space | 23:20 |
| bosnjak | hi all. how do i define global environment variables? Do i use ~/.profile, or ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile? What is the right way? | 23:25 |
| shuvarek | I accidentally turn off computer | 23:34 |
| bosnjak | shuvarek: ok | 23:34 |
| shuvarek | after restart the xfce session does not start | 23:34 |
| bosnjak | shuvarek: what happens, there is a black screen, or? | 23:35 |
| shuvarek | how to reinstall xfce? | 23:35 |
| bosnjak | shuvarek: do you have any GUI? | 23:35 |
| shuvarek | Just session does not start, and the 'time' cursor is still even in the console | 23:35 |
| shuvarek | now I installed lxde because learn ircii is too much for me | 23:36 |
| shuvarek | so I purge xfce4-session | 23:36 |
| shuvarek | and install it again but it does not helped | 23:36 |
| bosnjak | shuvarek: reinstall xubuntu-desktop? | 23:37 |
| holstein | shuvarek: you should try removing the session files in your user's /home | 23:37 |
| shuvarek | funny thing, but there vere no .session | 23:37 |
| holstein | shuvarek: i try with other user accounts.. there is a guest session | 23:38 |
| shuvarek | sorry I do not understan, what do you mean, the .session file should be in /home/user or in /home? | 23:40 |
| holstein | shuvarek: i look it up each time, or just poke around till i find them.. but i think its ~/.cache/sessions ? | 23:43 |
| shuvarek | ohh yes thnks | 23:43 |
| Sysi | then there's .Xauthority and .ICEauthority that might be corrupted | 23:43 |
| shuvarek | what about delete all the .cache from console (after logout)? | 23:44 |
| shuvarek | is it a good idea? | 23:44 |
| holstein | shuvarek: i just test, and get rid of whatever necessary.. i tend to just move, and not delete | 23:44 |
| holstein | shuvarek: no need to ever delete til you are sure.. then you can recover | 23:45 |
| shuvarek | okay then i will try to move, thanks for your help | 23:47 |
| shuvarek | BTW I try to connect to #xubuntu from ircii as shubu2 but probably with no efect | 23:48 |
| shuvarek | so see u latter after relogging | 23:49 |
| Ethan[] | any idea why dpkg and apt might be reporting 'No space left on device' for anything I try, when I have 8.6 GB free? | 23:49 |
| bosnjak | how do i define global environment variables? Do i use ~/.profile, or ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile? What is the right way? | 23:51 |
| shade | dam, instaled xubuntu 13.10 and after reboot i get only xfce mouse scren and spining window :( | 23:51 |
| shuvarek | hello | 23:52 |
| shuvarek | still this same problem | 23:52 |
| Sysi | bosnjak: if your "global" means "for all users", not anything in your home folder | 23:52 |
| shuvarek | when I start session with 'xubuntu' there is the small mause blinking and the screen went black for a while and after white forever - that's all what I see | 23:53 |
| shuvarek | I can killl X from console, but I cannot start the xfce session | 23:53 |
| shuvarek | how to reinstall xfce completely? | 23:54 |
| shuvarek | which packages I should delete / purge? | 23:55 |
